We're looking at $820 before tearing up any equipment per race.

As soon as you get in an incident you rack up about $1000 real quick. Plus occasional things break in the motor and tires pop without warning.

We ran 19 races this year and it cost us $18,000 out of pocket in 2018 which includes the pay back of our winnings for the year.
Excuse me as I don't get to a heck of a lot races any more but what results did this expenditure net?
